IIAM Groups Skin & Laser Clinic at Pune offers best and effective treatment for hyperhidrosis (Excessive sweating) Hyperhidrosis is the condition characterized by abnormally increased sweating/perspiration, in excess of that required for regulation of body temperature. It is associated with a significant quality of life burden from a psychological, emotional, and social perspective. As such, it has been referred to as the ‘silent handicap’.Hyperhidrosis can either be generalized or localized to specific parts of the body. Hands, feet, armpits, and the groin area are among the most active regions of perspiration due to the relatively high concentration of sweat glands. When excessive sweating is localized (e.g. palms, soles, face, underarms, scalp) it is referred to as primary or focal hyperhidrosis. Generalized or secondary hyperhidrosis usually involves the body as a whole and is the result of an underlying condition. Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) of palms and soles is very common and it usually hampers work. So treatment is very necessary. ​

The cause of primary hyperhidrosis is unknown, although some doctors claim it is caused by sympathetic nerve over-activity. Nervousness or excitement can exacerbate the situation for many sufferers. Other factors can play a role; certain foods and drinks, nicotine, caffeine, and smells can trigger a response.

Symptoms :

• Excessive sweating is the only symptom.

• Sometimes there may be chances of getting secondary fungal infection. ​
